Canton No. 84 Chapter Inspection

On Monday, 4/25, RECs Young and Nockengost joined me in traveling to Canton for Canton No. 84's inspection in the Most Excellent Master degree.   As I have said before, Canton is a very large temple with the dinning room in the basement and a York Rite room on the second floor.

We started with a dinner at 6:00 PM.  If I give you three guess as to what we had to eat,  the Masons reading this will probably hit the menu on the head with the first try.   Yep, swiss steak, mashed potatoes and green beans.  This typical Masonic meal was very good.   The portions were huge and the food quite tasty.  Now if you notice I did not say pie for dessert.   We had either banana or fresh pineapple foster sundaes!!!.   It was made for each of us as we finished our meal.  They were excellent and just what each of us needed to help us stay awake during the inspection.

At 7:00 PM the Chapter was opened in the Most Excellent Master degree in full form.   This is the home Chapter of REC Richard Snider, DDGHP of the 18th District, so the guest inspector was REC Ross Black, 17th DDGHP.  Introductions were done by the Eminent Prior of Ohio Priory #18, REC William Stratton.




Companions from the 17th District were there in force to help Canton Chapter with the work and with that help the Degree was done in fine form.   One Candidate was from Canton and another from Kent Chapter.

All in all the night went very well,   A VERY fine dinner, good degree work and roads that were dry for a change.

"til the next time
